Best Family Restaurants in South Miami

"Restaurants Chinese Wynwood. Commanding its own lively corner on the outer edges of a tightly packed Wynwood, this petite, dimly lit parcel serves up Chinese classics alongside a respectable wine list and just the right amount of scene. Its pink facade, hanging wicker lamps and elbow room only dining room make for a fun stop off before a night out, but Palmar’s blue crab fried rice topped with bean sprouts and a sticky 63-degree egg is reason enough to put in a reservation and brave the Wynwood crowds."

"Bless Palmar for continuing to offer Miami’s best Chinese-Latin cuisine throughout the crisis. Available for pickup via Toast Tab and delivery through Uber Eats, Postmates and GrubHub, indulge in the restaurant’s latest promotion, #PalmarEnCasa, which means you’ll enjoy the same great flavors of the Wynwood restaurant straight from your own home. We’ll take orders of the shiitake edamame dumplings, blue crab fried rice and pork belly bao buns."

"The restaurant takes traditional Chinese cuisine and turns it into something that locals and critics have fallen in love with. Some even say it’s the best Chinese restaurant in Miami. For starters, their dim sum is bursting with flavor, along with other colorful dishes."

"Spiga is located on Collins avenue in Miami Beach with a unique romantic atmosphere of an old Italian villa. All pastas are made in house and menu items are all made using the freshest ingredients for the last 25 years!. The dinner menu focuses around old Italian dishes like Calamari, Mozzerella alla Caprese, Zuppa di Cozzee and Vongole with mussels and clams in a white sauce."

"With white tablecloths, candlelight, and an inviting outdoor space, Spiga Ristorante Italiano has a romantic, special-occasion-worthy vibe. The dinner menu perfectly fits this old-..."

"Coconut GroveThere’s nothing quite like delving into a spicy, steaming plate of chicken vindaloo in a mirrored space that could well have been the inspiration for the Babylon Club. But would you expect any less out of Miami’s most vaunted Indian restaurant, who moved into this massive Mayfair space after it outgrew its old digs on Commodore Plaza. Bombay Darbar plays the Indian classics better than anyone in Miami, and though it’s not as cutting edge as some of our more-celebrated Indian eateries it still packs ’em in night after night.How to book: Call 305-444-7272 to reserve."

"What began as a mom-and-pop 30-seater has grown into an Indian-food mainstay with two locations (Coconut Grove and Fort Lauderdale). Diners crunch on crisp papadum wafers while watching Bollywood movies on a large screen and perusing the menu. That list is lengthy, but at its heart are the tikkas, tandooris, and vindaloos that fans of Indian food crave."

"If you’ve got a seafood restaurant on the beach, that fish better be fresh — and Fifi’s does not disappoint. Every morning a local surfer goes out into the Atlantic and catches hog snapper and grouper and, when in season, lobster. It can be a little pricey, but go for the daily lunch specials to get a killer meal on a budget."

"Fifi’s is one of the best-kept secrets of our city, located in Miami’s North Beach. But it quite possibly serves some of the best seafood in all of the city. The neighborhood hidden gem is famous for its fresh Hog Snapper, caught by locals daily, as well as the flavorful seafood paella."

"Latin American seafood restaurant famous for its seafood paella and the freshest stone crabs when in season, also offering oyster bar and lobster specials."

"Wedged onto Washington Ave between Fourth and Fifth Streets, La Locanda is a tiny hole-in-the-wall Italian restaurant that serves an extensive menu of traditional Italian cuisine for lunch and dinner. Owned and operated by Francesco Cavalletti and Massimo Fortunato, their cozy 'little bambino' comfortably seats up to 60 guests, who tuck into delicious dishes such as ravioli stuffed with spinach and cheese in a light pink sauce, linguini with clams, veal scaloppini of the day, and a variety of gourmet pizzas.

"Every city has to have a tiny hole-in-the-wall Italian restaurant run by people from Italy, that has amazing food and costs half of what its big, sexy competitors do. And while you're welcome to jump in the comments and tell us which one it is, our pick is this spot wedged onto Washington Ave between Fourth and Fifth Streets. Not only does it have an extensive menu of food that tastes straight out of Italy, but the pizza might be the best in Miami."

"If you’re feeling ambitious on your townie cruiser, you can ride north to Bal Harbour or Haulover beaches; natives know these as water-sports havens—and for Bal Harbour’s luxury shopping. Otherwise, drop off your bike along Ocean Drive and grab a spot on the beach, Lummus Beach, which runs from around 6th to 14th streets. This is a beach for locals and tourists alike, and the spread of humanity—supermodels, families and even topless tanners—make this a go-to spot for people-watching."

"For those of you who want a little more variety (or for those that don't like shopping), you can stop at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, where there is something for everyone. Guests have the option to enjoy the casino, horse racing, live entertainment and more."

"Normandy Isle’s Rouge is an unexpected experience in Moroccan-French cooking. It’s part luxurious garden, part Casablanca (there’s live jazz at the grand piano every Wednesday), and your best bet for an upscale meal in North Beach. Moroccan born chef/owner Nabil Hach Al-luch bought the space in 2012, and created a menu with dishes like Moroccan braised duck and apricot, rabbit stew, and branzino en papillote."

"From the team behind culinary behemoth Zuma comes LPM Miami, an equally chic high-end French brasserie with Mediterranean touches. Guests at this Brickell spot can expect to dine among the socialite crowd and business crowds, who are all in search of one thing: delicious food. Stars of the menu include the creamy burrata, fresh yellowtail carpaccio, and melt-in-your-mouth traditional escargot, but don’t forget to save room for light-as-air cheesecake."
